Mysql Problems


Question

Hello

I am running Red Hat 8 with Apache & mySQL, i've got a copy of PremiumSoft MySQL Studio but when I enter my details, it says it cannot connect?

My Intranet site is running fine, and mySQL is running OK, the username and password are correct but mySQL Studio says it cannot connect as "root@10.44.16.191"

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Ben :)

It may be a firewall/configuration error, try the following and let me know if it helps:

1) Create a custom firewall rule enabling port 3306 access by logging it as root and typing "lokkit" then restart iptables via "/etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables restart" or "/etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains restart"

2) Modify /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld and replace '--skip-networking' with '--port=3306'

3) Start the daemon up via "$bindir/safe_mysqld --datadir=$datadir --pid-file=$pid_file --port=3306 &"

4) Log in as root to mysql (mysql -u root -p) and grant permissions to the database you want i.e. GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dbname.* TO 'username'@'serverip' identified by 'password';

5) Restart MySQL and all should be good.

Good luck!

    • AliExpress faces EU crackdown, makes promises to fight illegal products by Paul Hill The European Commission has taken two significant actions against the Chinese online marketplace AliExpress under the Digital Services Act (DSA) in a bid to enhance user and consumer safety online. The first action was to get AliExpress to commit to several legally binding commitments to address issues related to advertising and recommender systems. The second action was the publication of preliminary findings which found that AliExpress had breached obligations regarding the spread of illegal products. AliExpress can now respond to the Commission but if the broken rules are confirmed then AliExpress can expect to be fined. The Digital Services Act is a new tool that the EU has to regulate large online platforms. It aims to level the business playing field, protect fundamental rights of users, create a safer digital space, and improve transparency from businesses. AliExpress's pledges: More transparency, safer shopping As part of the pledges made by AliExpress, it will do more to monitor and detect illegal products such as medicines, food supplements, and adult material propagated through hidden links and affiliate programs. To help flag illegal items, AliExpress has promised to improve its notice and action mechanism. Other pledges include enhancements to the internal complaint handling system; more transparency for advertising and recommender systems; better traceability of traders on the platform; and improved data access for researchers. By implementing these rules, the European Commission hopes it can make AliExpress safer for registered and non-registered users by limiting the exposure to illegal content. Deep dive into AliExpress's alleged failures With regards to the preliminary findings, the Commission found that AliExpress had underestimated the risks because it had not allocated enough resources to moderation systems for illegal products. It also found that the company had failed to consistently enforce its penalty policy against those publishing illegal content. The Commission also discovered systemic failures in AliExpress’s proactive content moderation systems that allowed malicious traders to continue to operate or start operating on the platform. AliExpress is designated as a Very Large Online Platform (VLOP) which means it has to meet certain standards set out by the EU. The aforementioned violations are against the quality of operation that the EU expects from VLOPs. The company now has the right to defend itself against the EC’s findings, it can examine the documents and reply in writing, but if the findings are confirmed, AliExpress could face fines and be required to submit an action plan.
    • Author/Neowin... The title is incorrect and misleading... By the official blog post, it's not "indefinitely". There's a clear statement that development continues with a few specific target areas, and a new release date TBD and announced later. If it is later announced to be cancelled or delayed indefinitely, that's another story.
    • I hate Microsoft. My parents almost lost all drive content. As senior citizens they are unable to follow constant "improvements" Microsoft is dropping on its users. My mother's laptop is normally unlocked with a PIN. It is unexplicable for non-It person, that there is some cloud mictosoft account, that has a different password than the Pin and user ID is e-mail, but not necessarily normal Gmail addree, and even if the person knows this email address the password is not the password used for this email account. Just too much of twists. Suddenly her laptop ordered entering "decryption key" before booting. It was miracle we managed to guess email address associated with the PC that was used for Microsoft account. She would had lost everything on the drive. Why are they doing this? Privacy may be important for some people, but data loss is much more important for most of the people.
